Event Details
There are many reasons for companies to merge with or acquire another company, but the most common factor is the opportunity to accelerate growth. In addition, companies merge to share information, technology or other resources to increase overall strength. Mergers also help overcome existing challenges, reduce weaknesses and gain a competitive edge in the market. During the first half of 2021, Asian merger & acquisition (M&A) activity surged to its second-highest level ever and there are strong indications that the momentum will continue for the rest of the year.
Join us for our next SwedCham APAC Event, where we, together with our expert panel, will explore why M&A activities are growing in importance in APAC, what economic factors are fuelling these activities and which industries are most likely to benefit from the surge. We will also discuss general trends and opportunities in the region with regards to growth.
Panelists:
- Martin Ekberg, Sweden's Trade Commissioner to Australia and Business Sweden's Global M&A Lead (Sydney)
- Enrique Patrickson, CFO & Head of Sales for APAC and MEA at Electrolux (Singapore)
- Ola Nordh, Head of M&A at Anticimex Group (Stockholm).
